Default Data to big for cell

Hi - I am programmatically setting the value of a particular cell in a
worksheet to a long string (some 2000 characters). I have set the width of
the column containing the cell to a sensible width (.ColumnWidth = 40) and I
have set the attribute .WrapText = True

I would expect to see all the data but some is not visible. The only way to
see the data is to later drag the column much wider etc. Surely, the wrap
attribute should suffice?

I have also tried inserting Char(10) at intervals within the string to act
like Ctrl +Alt (carriage throw) but no luck.

Any thoughts?
